Re: The target for a numeric operation is too small to hold the resul t (C G D F)

Tim,

If you're dropping decimals, use half adjust (h) op extender - eval (h)
p_P.... etc.

If you're dropping higher order digits (result is larger than
99,999,999,999.999999) then you have to monitor for the error.

             I'm getting this error....  Is there an H spec to remove it,
or do I
use an error code to trap it.?

             The target for a numeric operation is too small to hold the
result
(C G D F)

             c                   eval      p_P_tax_var  =

             c                               (g_g_txamount-linetax)/linetax


             All four of these variables, are defined ast 17,6  So I'm ok,
if I
have to drop accuracy after 7 places..

             Thanks, tim
